Operations on Intuitionisitc Fuzzy Soft Sets Based on First Zadeh's Logical Operators
No full textIn this paper, we have defined First Zadeh's intuitionistic fuzzy conjunction and intuitionistic fuzzy disjunction of two intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets. The author also defined some of their basic properties of intuitionistic fuzzy disjunction and conjunction with some examples. Nithya.

Does Outward Foreign Direct Investment Reduce Domestic Investment?: An Industry-Level Analysis
No full textWith the rise of globalisation, countries have become more connected financially and global cross-border investment flows have become more common. FDI is an important form of cross-border flow which is responsible for the spread of technology across countries and is the main source of external finance for emerging countries. In the last two decades, FDI has increased tremendously. But this has been accompanied by fears about outward FDI taking away production activities and jobs away from the home country. I look at how outward FDI affects home country investment. One can intuitively understand that a dollar of money spent abroad means a dollar less to invest in the domestic economy. Based on the theory of the financially constrained firm, I hypothesize that outward FDI reduces domestic fixed capital investment and R&D spending. I also develop a theoretical framework to distinguish the varying effects of outward FDI on domestic investment across traditional and R&D-intensive industries.By using industry-level panel data for 18 OECD countries covering the period 1995-2009, I regressed the shares of Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) and R&D spending separately on the share of outward FDI both for all industries as well as specifically for traditional and R&D-intensive industries. While, outward FDI had a negative effect on domestic capital investments at the aggregate level, it did not have any significant effect while looking at specific industry types. This could be because of the reduced sample size in the individual types. Outward FDI had a negative effect on domestic R&D spending at the aggregate level and for R&D-intensive industries, but it had a positive effect for traditional industries. Thus, while fears about outward FDI taking away domestic fixed capital investments are valid, outward FDI can have both a positive and negative effect on R&D expenditure, depending on the type of industry. These results can help MNCs make strategic investment decisions taking into account their effect on their home country industry. It can also help policymakers formulate tax and industrial policies to promote home country investments.Management of Technology (MoT
Analysis of distribution of DNA methylation in kidney-renal-clear-cell-carcinoma specific genes using entropy
No full textAbstractDNA Methylation is an epigenetic phenomenon in which methyl groups are added to the cytosines, thereby altering the physio-chemical properties of the DNA region and influencing gene expression. Aberrant DNA methylation in a set of genes or across the genome results in many epigenetic diseases including cancer. In this paper, we use entropy to analyze the extent and distribution of DNA methylation in Tumor Suppressor Genes (TSG's) and Oncogenes related to a specific type of cancer (viz.) KIRC (Kidney-renal-clear-cell-carcinoma). We apply various mathematical transformations to enhance the different regions in DNA methylation distribution and compare the resultant entropies for healthy and tumor samples. We also obtain the sensitivity and specificity of classification for the different mathematical transformations. Our findings show that it is not just the measure of methylation, but the distribution of the methylation levels in the genes that are significant in cancer

Where AES is for Internet, SIMON could be for IoT
No full textAbstractWith the upcoming era of Internet of Things and the Pervasive Computing, there is a need to develop block ciphers with tight constraints such as area, power, memory, performance, throughput and others. These are so called the lightweight block ciphers which are specifically intended for resource constrained platforms. Lined up in the line is SIMON, a light weight block cipher proposed by NSA after the prompting from the U.S. Government in the year 2013 along with SPECK lightweight block cipher. SIMON implementation on hardware has excellent results in terms of area and has been found to be a very strong alternative to the existing AES. This paper involves the basic design considerations, round functions, key schedule and parameters of SIMON and also we can look forward into the implementations of SIMON in hardware comparing with the existing AES standard. This paper also focuses on the analysis in terms of area, power and delay of the SIMON 64/128 configuration in Cadence Synthesis RTL Compiler using the CMOS 180 nm and 90 nm technology libraries
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) hollow fibre membrane fabrication for organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN)
No full textMembrane technology has allowed purification to be done in a cheaper and more energy efficient way. In organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN), material choice is important as the membrane must be able to withstand harsh solvents over a long time. Although polytetrafuoroethylene (PTFE) is known to be an inert material, little research has been done on using it for OSN membranes, due to fabrication challenges. In this study, the author has successfully synthesized PTFE hollow fibre thin film composites for OSN, despite challenges in the surface morphology and substrate hydrophilicity. The resultant membranes showed to have excellent chemical and mechanical stability when tested in harsh aprotic solvents such as dimethylformamide (DMF) and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). They showed high DMF permeance of 3.70 lm-2h-1bar-1, and high acid fuchsin dye rejections of >90%. The membranes were also stable at pressures of up to 5 bar, and overtime.Master of Engineerin
